[QUOTE="Smurfy, post: 1125729, member: 85743"] Not sure that Hansen would necessarily shine in another system, but he is absolutely crucial in the Irish gameplan, and was probably the last piece of the puzzle for Farrell. His role in the Irish side is much more multifaceted than that of a regular winger, and he is expected to stand in where needed during phase play, and to pop up as a linkman across the backline. He works his arse off and is brilliant on the short side because of his soft hands and timing of pass. Farrell has produced a very balanced side, with players not picked for standard skill sets but how their skills complement their teammates and suit the gameplan, and Hansen is probably the best example of this.
